The purpose of the article is to demonstrate the impact of the complex ideological process defined as "feminization" of early eighteenth-century literature on the activity of women translators. The model for historical research adopted in this work perceives translations as instrumental in the development of a culture and appears particularly helpful for the examination of the role played by translation in the redefinition of eighteenth-century literary traditions.

Abstract
The purpose of the article is to demonstrate the impact of the complex ideological process defined as "feminization" of early eighteenth-century literature on the activity of women translators. The model for historical research adopted in this work perceives translations as instrumental in the development of a culture and appears particularly helpful for the examination of the role played by translation in the redefinition of eighteenth-century literary traditions.
